Up 2Lbs! Uh-No!

No, not sure how that happened! OK, no problem. will keep going strong. The weight WILL go down! It has too! :)

Good day. No run today as I took it off after the 5K yesterday. Tomorrow, I'm running. Hopefully a 5K too. I'll be the happiest person ever when i can actually run the whole 5K. I know it's going to take time. And probably not before the race. But it's something I want to do.

Food today: Chicken kebab, 1 slice of toast, 2 slices of non fat cheese, 2 cups of coffee, 2 hard boiled eggs, slices deli ham, more chicken kebab! :)

Sorry my posts are short and not too interesting. It's getting busy around here!

Have a good one!

5K Run!

I did a 5K this morning! Wow! Can't believe it :) - Well, it was jogging/fast walking, but I actually did it. Which is great. Felt tired. I'm a bit sore in the legs, but i am super happy! And i feel great! It feels great to run. I got a feel to what the 5K is going to be in a couple of weeks. Hopefully by that time I can actually run it without stopping or just stopping a few times.

With more and more training/runs I am sure I'll get there!

Good weekend. Nothing new with my weight. I'm exactly the same. The last couple of days I had BBQ'd everything. Beef Kebab, Chicken Kebab, Baba Ghanouj (egg plant grilled), some salad (with no dressing). Pretty good.

I need to start making slight changes to my diet. As I need different kind of food for my training/run. It'll be mostly Dukan on PV. Hopefully that won't affect my main challenge of losing 10 Lbs by the 27th of Aug.

I'll catch up on your blogs in a bit. hope you're all doing well.

Guess What?!

Before I tell you my big news let me tell you about my day :) - I lost 0.4 lbs, which isn't too bad. Still going strong and in the right direction.

I had a "kinda" bad cut this evening opening a can of beans. Blood everywhere. Was pretty deep, so to the E.R my husband took me!  The location of the cut made it hard for stitches (close to the nail, sideways, as if around the finger). So, they "glued it!" hehe, cool. I would rather have that than stitches! So, all is well now, just finding it really hard to type. So, I'm just going to mention my big surprise before I end this post (which is taking forever to type!:)).

Last night I signed up for a 5K run in 2.5 weeks!! Yep. Did it and I already did my first training fast walk/jog this morning! I did 1.5 miles. Felt really happy and proud of myself. Started my run at 6:30 a.m. to run! Happy happy happy!  I should do at least 40 minutes a day of jogging/walking, until i reach my goal of actually running 5K. Hopefully I will get there in time for the race (on the 19th of Aug). My good friend, who is a runner is supporting and encouraging me! Soo blessed to have her!

Normal day food wise. The usual. Didn't mess up. Hopefully scales go down in the morning.

Have a great Dukan Day!
